Materials Data on MgTi by Materials Project

Abstract

MgTi is beta-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg is bonded to five equivalent Mg and seven equivalent Ti atoms to form MgMg5Ti7 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent TiMg7Ti5 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen equivalent MgMg5Ti7 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent MgMg5Ti7 cuboctahedra, edges with ten equivalent TiMg7Ti5 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent MgMg5Ti7 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent TiMg7Ti5 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Mg bond distances ranging from 2.83–2.99 Å. There are a spread of Mg–Ti bond distances ranging from 3.04–3.15 Å. Ti is bonded to seven equivalent Mg and five equivalent Ti atoms to form TiMg7Ti5 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent MgMg5Ti7 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen equivalent TiMg7Ti5 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent TiMg7Ti5 cuboctahedra, edges with ten equivalent MgMg5Ti7 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent TiMg7Ti5 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent MgMg5Ti7 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Ti–Ti bond distances ranging from 2.76–3.00 Å.
